IHE Senate has passed bills appro-
priating about fifty millions for ships
Of war, coast defonses and other war
like preparations If the Senate had
really wanted to do something for the
Navy, it would have passed these bills
early enough to permit Of their consid-
Grafton by the House of Representa-
tives. 1t ought not be expected that
the House will pass measures of such
magnitude, without an examination
which there is not now time to give.
But, of course, the Senate will get the
credit of having made a brilliant effort
towards an increase of the naval estab.
lishment, and the House will be con-
demned for neglect of its duty in this
matter

NEW YORK.
The Strike About Ended.

New YORK, February S.-There was
considerable activity on the piers of the
river front this morning, and freight was
being moved with much more dispatch
than on any day since the strike. The
time that has elapsed since the long
shoremen and freight-handlers quit work
has enabled the railroad and steamship
companies to select, and in some instances
train, sufficient men to keep the freight
moving steadily along Besides many of
the old freight handlers and 'longshore-
men are coming back to work, not at the
places where they are known, but where
they are least likely to be known. The
Maine Steamship company has got most
of its old hands back. At the Clyde line
dock, Pier % East river, there were 200
men waiting for the City of Atlanta to
reach the dock Superintendent Healey
said that out of that number he could
pick all the men he required. The Nal
iory line dock had resumed its customary
busy appearance. Charles Mallory said
that they were not experiencing any
difficulty at all in getting their steamers
away on schedule time. They had more
men asking for work than they could
give employment to.

tons. her machinery % tons and her single

the method Of operating the gun. The car.
riage of this piece is arranged so that the
force of the recoil at the moment OF firing not
only puts it under cover during the reloading
but also brings it into place again when ready
for firing.
The gun has caliber of only 515 inches, but
owing to very energetic explosives used she
destructive results are very great. Inc gun
being placed immediStely in front OF the pilot
house permits of the horizontal aim beng
given to it by the pilot. The firing of pro
iectile weighing sixty-six pounds can be per
formed at the rate of one minute. The
method of passing the ammunition up to the
gun is shown in the illustration. On the trial

miles an hour.

PannelIs Speech in the British House oil
Commons.

LONDON. February S.-The feature OF
the debate in the House of Commons last
evening was Mr. Parnell's speech upon
his amendment TO the Queens message.
Mr.. Parnell addressed himself with
Great eloouence and yigor against the
nolicy of coercion and maintained that
if the bill for the stopping of evictlonss
which he introduced last session had
nassed. the condition of Ireland would
have been greatly improved. The
blame for the present serious position
of Irish domestic affairs rested with the
Government. The Government talked OF
the robbery of landlords, forgetting that
almost every title to Irish land was
founded upon wholesale robbery and
confiscation. Mr.. Parnell taunted the
Tories with the declaration that If they
cot powers of oppression equaling those
of the Gar they would never be able to
administer them under constitutional
government, nor 50 long as the Irish
members had seats in Parliament
p. Mcdonald, (NationalisD member for
North Sligo, seconded the amendment
and on motion of Mr.. John Morley the
debate was adjourned. Mr.. Gladstone
will support the amendment.

Almost "A Panic.

New YORK, February S.-The breaking
of defective steam radiator in Hyde *
Behman's Brooklyn Theatre last night
caused alarm, and some one cried fire A
panic ensued, 1000 persons making a
rush for the exits. Two soldiers from
Fort Hamilton, who were near the main
door, did excellent service in checking
the panic and stopping the rush. They
were reinforced by the police, and Mr..
Behman made an explanation from the
stage, which helped in bringing the peo-
pie to their senses. Several women faint
ed, but no one was seriously hurt. The
theatre stands on the former site of the
building which was used as a morgue for
the 2S5 victims of the Brooklyn Theatre
fire of several years ago.

WAR SHIP OR GUNB0AT.
WHICH SHALL PREDOMINANT IN
THE FUTURE NkVIES2

The Argument in Favor of Small War
Vessels and Torpedo Boats-What Eu-
rope Is Doing in the Matter-Recent
Trials.
According to Admiral Porter, "the grand
total appropriated during the year for the
increase Of the United States navy has been
$5.G41.Gl7n The result il that the navy has
dwindlcd down TO twcnty-eight vessels that
can he actually used for active service.
"Twenty Of these" says the admiral, ARE
only third rates and five of them are about
equivalent TO tugs" Millions have been
wasted on repairs though. An effort Is
being made TO remedy this neglect by begin
ming the construction of navy at once The
navy department at Washington is besieSed
by designers Of war ships and plans OF coast
defense. Inventors are giving all their atten-
ton Just now 10 the subject of warfare. But
the problem before the navy department IS,
whether we shall have a large fleet of smal!
and swift torpedo or gun5Oats, with Few
cumbersome iron clads or whether it SHALL be
plenty of large war ships and few small
ones 4 point argued in favor Of the smaller
vessels is that they can be quickly built and
the heavier work Of protecting the harhoIs
and cities along the coast can lie left TO the
land forts and batteries. At this time IL Is
interesting TO note what is being done on the
other side of the Atlantic in the matter. The
foreign periodicals teen with Illustrations and
descriptions of war enenes of all kinds but
it i, noticeable that considerable attention IS
given in naval experiments TO small gun
boats. Two of the latest vessels Of this class
are presented here.

ANOTHER Dynamite OUTRAGE.
A San Francisco Cable Road Dummy
Blown to Pieces.

SAN Francisco, February S.-The
Geary- y-street cable road was the scene OF
another dynamite explosion last night:
Just as train going west had reached
the corner of Fillmore and Geary streets
a loud explosion occurred. The whole
side of the dummy was blown to splinters.
There were no passengers on ii, and the
only person aboard besides the gripman
and conductor was policeman, who was
detailed to discover distractions on the
track. He was riding on the front of the
dummy, and his complete escape from in
Jury and that of the gripman and con-
ductor are marvellous. The conductor
had stopped the train a minute before to
permit party of ladies and gentlemen to
leave it. The conclusion was felt for
distance of mile. The wrecked dummy
was quickly replaced by new one, and
traffic was not interrupted. There is no
clue to the perpetrators of the outrage

ChaImcs was am enthusiast on the subject of
revolutioniziue the style of war vessels. He
held that the mwieldy ironclad floating bait

future navy would consist only Of single gun
boats. lis articles on the subject created q
sensation. but he died without knowing that
his ideas had been approved The present
minister Of the French marine, Admiral Aube
ordered the construction Of a boat to test the
value of young Charmes' idea.

A Fortunate Discovery.

CHARLESTON, S. c., February S.-The
steamship Cherokee, of the Clyde line,
bound for New York, caught fire after
leaving the dock this morning at $40
o'clock. The fire broke out in the after
hold in the cotton. The steamer signaled
the tugs. and was redocked at 1915. The
fire department responded promptly to
the summons, and at 1870 the fire was
under control. There was no panic on
board, although there were about forty
passengers, including a number of ladies.
